It was nice today and not too busy. Tons of the tables in the middle of the butchery to sit at. Service was pretty quick too! The hubs ended up grabbing so prepared items to take home, and some fresh sliced ham. Its not cheap, but a nice treat once in a while.

The staff was attentive and very accommodating, and allowed me to change my order slightly after paying for it (I asked to add pickle slices) (which they did at no extra charge, I might add!) They were well organized, and efficient - all the while, with everyone wearing face masks thanks to COVID. There was a long lineup, which moved swiftly. Note: Vera's shares store space with The Butchery. Obviously they get their meat next door; good advertising for each other!! Five stars for being very impressive for this visit! They have shared seating between the counters, and a variety of sauces and spices to choose from, to take home and try out. Already looking forward to my next visit!!

Kinda feels like a semi-permanent establishment. Smash Daddy Burger - A double patty of flattened beef was delicious. It was a melange of flavours that worked very well. I wish the patty was more crispy so that there is more texture in the patty. Naked Fries - The spiced fries were one of the best fries I've had. Fries were super crispy with fluffy interior. There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

BEST CHIPS IN OTTAWA!…read more This is my second visit to Ottawa and last time I went to a few other places and this is definitely the best poutine I have had in Ottawa. The fires were crispy, the curds were squeaky and the gravy was delicious. Id also like to shout out the person who took our order; she was super friendly and asked me to share my thoughts after, which just made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. It's in a Canadian Tire parking lot, which just adds to the Canadian vibe. 5/5 amazing place!

Mont Tacos is a chain from Montreal that was just founded in 2018. All of their locations at the…read moretime of this review are in the Greater Montreal Area except for this one, which is in Ottawa. So I'm usually super jealous of all my friends who still live in my hometown, Toronto, because Toronto almost always gets new chains before we do here in Ottawa. But this time I get to say "Na na na na boo boo! We got Mont Tacos before you!" Lol. This location opened up on October 2020. So Mont Tacos sells what they call "French Tacos" but I would describe them as "flattened burritos." They have some pre-set ones or you can build your own. I built my own. I got 2 small combos, which comes with fries, a dipping sauce, and a fountain drink ($8.99 each combo). If you just get a small sandwich it's $5.99. They have medium, large and X-large too, to suit your appetite. For the base price you get 1 meat and 1 sauce choice. You can add more toppings (meat, cheese, or vegetables) for more money ($1-2 per topping). I didn't add any additional toppings. I got 1 with "marinated chicken" and Samurai sauce and 1 with "chicken cutlet" and Algerian sauce. So they put fries inside the "taco" and they also add their signature cheese sauce. I found the "tacos" a little too wet and saucy for my tastes, but I still enjoyed it. My husband and I shared the "tacos" so I was able to eat half of each. The "marinaded chicken" has a curry flavour to it, which I enjoy, but if you don't like curry, you might want to stick with the regular "chicken cutlet." I was very pleased that both types of chicken were real chicken breast pieces and not some fake chicken loaf like you get at Subway Sandwiches or other places. The fries were shoestring fries, which was my favourite. They weren't that crispy by the time I got home (got takeout), but they were still delicious. The Algerian sauce is a bit sweet and a tiny bit spicy. I really liked it. The Samurai sauce is also spicy, but was less multidimensional than the Algerian sauce. Both were good. Service was friendly and efficient. The food here is Halal. This restaurant is where Central Bergham used to be and truth be told, Mont Tacos reminds me of Central Bergham a lot. Central Bergham also has creamy dipping sauces for their fries and they also had Algerian sauce and they kind of tasted the same. I don't know what I conclude from these observations. Hey whatever, I'm a fan of both places! I just wished that they would include 1 free vegetable topping with your order. I feel like the price can really creep up if you add lots of vegetables to it. The restaurant is in a strip mall, there is some free parking in the mall parking lot, but the lot is small and difficult to maneuver around when it's full. There's some free street parking if you don't mind walking a little bit.
